------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4480-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Guilhem Moulin February 17, 2026 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : roundcube Version : 1.4.15+dfsg.1-1+deb11u7 CVE ID : CVE-2026-25916 CVE-2026-26079 Debian Bug : 1127447

Vulnerabilities were discovered in Roundcube, a skinnable AJAX based webmail solution for IMAP servers, which might lead to information disclosure or privilege escalation.

CVE-2026-25916

NULL CATHEDRAL discovered that the HTML sanitizer doesn't treat SVG `<feImage href=>` as an image source. This allows attackers to bypass remote image blocking to track email open action or potentially bypass access control.

CVE-2026-26079

CERT Polska discovered that CSS code in text/html emails were insufficiently sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious stylesheet rules.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.15+dfsg.1-1+deb11u7.

We recommend that you upgrade your roundcube packages.
